Tempting Fate

64 Chapter 64: The Demon Realm Reed didn’t put Emy to sleep at all last night. The one-month craving for Emy returned to him. Reed left Emy’s top as he was gasping. Kissing Emy on the lips, he cuddled her and embraced her tightly.

You didn’t really allow me to rest, Reed....” said Emy.

Reed chuckled. “When we all get together this morning, I will present you to everyone.”

“What? Did you have to do that?” Emy said, “I don’t think it’s time yet.” It’s still early for me, too.”

Because if I don’t do that, surprise will take everyone...” Reed said.

Emy tried to get up, but the pain of her womanhood was too much. Reed saw she was experiencing some pain, and she winced.

Reed asked her while chuckling, “Did I claim you this far?”

“You’ve gone over the top. “Oh, damn, it hurts a bit...” said Emy.

“To tell you the truth, I really missed you. Just a guess, but I thought you would be fatigued; why don’t we relax first? We’ll come back to your world at some point.” Reed said.

.....

“You are ruthless if you do that.”

“Even though I’m protecting you, you should know that I’m a cold-blooded killer.”

“Awts, I guess it’s swollen,” Emy said.

Reed scowled. “Seriously? Let me see... ”

“No!”

Reed had a chuckle. “Don’t tell me you are still embarrassed to see that. How many times have I experienced it by tasting it, seeing it, and touching it?”

Emy scowled. Her womanhood hurts a lot. She stood up and looked at Reed, who was staring at her while she was naked. She could see the desire in his eyes, as if he didn’t feel tired and bored.

“Reed, I want my clothes back.”

Reed stood up, and Emy looked over his body as well. Even though that part of her body was still hurting, she wanted his thing inside of her again. Reed saw Emy looking at him while he was still stiff, and he wanted to claim her again.

“One more round? I thought you were worn out... ” said Reed.

“I need to get dressed....” Emy said. “Reed.”

“But I wish you weren’t wearing clothes.”

Emy didn’t say a word; she just looked at Reed seriously and without blinking. Reed placed one hand on his head. He then turned his back on Emy and waved his hand in front of her. When the big closet door opened, the towel flew out and almost hit Reed’s hand. Even the clothes they had thrown all over the floor flew toward Reed.

“Let’s have a bath...” Reed said.

It surprised Emy when her feet popped up out of the floor suddenly. Reed smiled and looked at him for a while, then put his hand on his hip and pulled him closer. She sighed as the hard thing stuck to her lower belly.

“Let’s just shower....” Reed whispered to her.

Emy stopped moving because she wasn’t ready for that. And just like her suspicion, they didn’t just take a shower because Reed claimed in the bathroom again.

Emy couldn’t believe she was actually in a palace. She walked with Reed down the hall. They made the building of black adobe stones. She felt like she was in a fairy tale.

It shocked Emy when she walked into a big room and saw a table that was probably as long as two buses. As Reed and she walked in, everyone stood up.

“Honor the king’s arrival!”

They were in front of everyone at the same time. She looked over at Reed. Reed gave her a slight smile, as if he didn’t want everyone to see it. When Reed walked in, she went with him, and the two of them walked to the other end of the dining room table, where there were chairs next to each other. They stood in front of two chairs when they got to the end of the table.

“I’d like to introduce my queen to everyone here. Salute!”

“Honor the chosen queen!”

Emy’s face got red because she was ashamed of what those there had done. Reed sat down, and Emy did the same. Then everyone else did the same. Everyone else also sat down.

“Why did they take so long?”

Devin was standing in front of the portal and going back and forth a few times, but Emy and Reed were still gone. Devin stopped walking and looked at the portal.

“Couldn’t something bad have happened if it had poisoned Emy in the realm?” Devin asked himself.

Devin grabbed his chin. “Damn”

Devin was thinking about something else when he heard a knock on the door. He looked out the window and saw Emy’s father at the door. After taking a deep breath, he quickly got out of his room, went down the stairs, and opened the door. He was a little taken aback when he saw Emy’s dad carrying food.

“I don’t know if you’ve eaten lunch yet, but I brought you some sweets,” said Eddie.

“Dad, you shouldn’t have bothered,” Devin said.

The old man laughed. “Did you see Emy? I haven’t seen her in hours. She said she didn’t have a job today and would just stay at home. But Maria isn’t at home as well yet.”

“They might be together,” Devin said as he took the old man’s container from him. He likes cake because it tastes good and melts in his mouth.

“What do you think?” Eddie asked.

Eddie saw Devin looking around his room, so he said goodbye. “Try that, Devin, it tastes great,” Eddie said, and then he left quickly.

When Eddie left, Devin shut the door and ran back to his room as fast as he could. He sat on the bed with his back to the door. The fork floated toward him from the air, and he grabbed it right away. While he was waiting in front of the portal, he ate a cake.

“You’re in danger, my queen.”

As they got closer to the palace gate, Emy looked at Maria and thought of Eve. Emy says she wants to see Eve, but Reed tells her she can’t.

“Well, why?” Emy asked.

“There is a lust in Eve’s palace. You can’t go there because you’re not allowed.” Reed said.

“They will kill you by making love to you. They’ll drain your life force, ” Maria said.

Emy got nervous suddenly. Reed leaned in close to Emy’s ear. “Remember that your flesh is still swollen.”

Emy got red in the face and then looked at Maria. From the gate, they can hear a noise. The three of them turned around and watched as it opened slowly. As Reed and Maria left the gate, Emy took a deep breath.

Even when the gate suddenly shut when they came out, Emy turned away. She looked around.

“This place would be better if it was dark,” Emy says.

“What did you think a place like earth would be like?” Reed asked. “This world is full of demons, and there is nothing fun, beautiful, or desirable about it.”

“Yes, it is,” Emy said. Reed’s brows went up. “You.” Emy smiled sweetly at Reed.

Reed was shocked for a moment and just stood there, looking at Emy as she walked away with Maria. His heart was beating strangely, that she had never felt before. He couldn’t figure that out. He felt like he was being hit in the chest by a loud drum he couldn’t understand.

‘Why would it feel like this?’ Reed thought.

“Reed, what else are you doing out there?” Emy called from a nearby location.

He stopped thinking about Reed and turned to look at Emy, who was close by. They walked away from him and left him behind. Reed hurried over to the two women. Emy smiled at him when she saw him, and the woman then took her arm.

Before they got to the portal, they walked for about half an hour. “Why don’t you even have a carriage or something to ride here?” Emy spoke up.

Reed and Mary both looked at him. Emy was upset because there was no light on the other side of the portal, which meant that Devin had not opened the other portal.

“What the hell is he doing? Why hasn’t he opened the door yet?” Reed asked.

While this was going on, Devin ate a cake and fell asleep. It bore him waiting in front of the portal.

Maria stares at the sky. “It’s getting late, my king. It’s risky for us to still be here outside the palace.”

Reed breathed in deeply and looked around. “We can’t go anywhere because we’d have to walk back.”

Emy turned around and heard a crack far away. Maria pulled out her sword and turned back. Emy’s eyes got bigger when she saw a big lion about the size of a baby bus and tried to jump closer to them. Emy immediately placed his both arms in her face to block the attack but Reed blocked the demon’s claws while Maria stabbed it in its belly.
